• Bessie Drysdale (1871–1950) – member of the WSPU National Executive Committee, one of the 52 women arrested during a suffragette march to the House of Commons in 1907, and writer for the short lived radical feminist magazine The Freewoman (1911–1913)
• Charles Vickery Drysdale (1874–1961) – one of the founding members of the Men’s League for Women’s Suffrage in 1907

Drysdale House, Geelong, Australia

The circa 1891 house was built at 69 Fyans St, Newtown before it was relocated to form part of the Australian House Museum in front of Deakin University in Waurn Ponds in 1984. The historic house was then relocated to 122 High St, Drysdale in 2004 and has since been renovated and restored, transforming it into a beautiful home.

The house was built by the Herd family, who were painters, decorators and plumbers, before the 1892 depression.

Charles Vickery Drysdale, was a Eugenicist, His type here in America labled  Native Americans and their descendants as Negro, Virginia's registrar of vital statistics at the time, Walter Plecker [also a Eugenicist] changed untold numbers of Natives records. This man met with and communicated with members of the Nazi party, while serving as Commonwealth of Virginia's  Registrar. This white supremacy view was not singular to Virginia, ''clubs'' sharing similar views popped up all around the USA. 

I am sure Bessie Drysdale as CVDrysdale's wife shared his every view.
